Our brain (mind) can be thought of as having two parts.
1. A conscious part. This is the part that we experience and generally perceive as ‘us’.
2. An unconscious part. This is the part that we don’t usually directly experience, and often forget exists.
This first part, the conscious part, has language.
The second part, the unconscious part does not deal with language. This part deals with metaphor, imagery and story.
If you want to change your mind, you might need to tell it a new story.
